In the research chokeberries from five different geographic regions of Latvia were analysed. All collected samples were split in two parts: one of them was frozen and the second part was dried. Then extracts were prepared from frozen or dried berries in 70% ethanol/water or 10% glycerol/ethanol and 50% – 95% ethanol/water/HCl mixtures. The total phenolic content for the extracts was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, total flavonoid content by rutin as standard and antioxidant activity by DPPH method. To identify and quantify the chemical compounds in the chokeberries, the analyses were performed with HPLC-DAD using absolute calibration and UHPLC-MS methods.
